A little about duralumin

According to history, the first alloy that was produced at the beginning of the nineteenth century was duralumin. At first, they didn’t find him industrial applications, since the production cost was very high. For the first fifty years it was sold for much more than gold. Only at the beginning of the twentieth century were physicists able to master the technology that made it possible to produce duralumin on a scale sufficient to reduce the price. And also to saturate the market of that time.

Copper and manganese give duralumin special strength characteristics. The addition of these elements further enhances rigidity. Obtaining these qualities entails the inevitable appearance of disadvantages: duralumin cannot be subjected to welding; for stamping work, the alloy must be subjected to heat treatment. The workpieces are connected using bolted connections or use riveting.

In modern construction industry in great demand They use structures of various shapes and purposes made of aluminum alloy. Due to their operational and mechanical characteristics - corrosion resistance, lightness, durability, strength, ductility - the products are used for furnishing storage facilities, exhibition and shopping complexes, residential buildings. Aluminum structures are also used in the construction of masts, towers, tanks and dams. Light alloys are used for the aesthetic design of interior decoration elements.

Aluminum structures are most often used in the glazing of translucent facades, door and window blocks, transparent roofs, and office partitions. For this purpose, special profile products are used.

Manufacturing of aluminum structures

According to the requirements of SNiP and GOST, two types of raw materials are used for production:

• non-strengthening aluminum - AMtsM, AMg2P, AD1M and other grades;
• hardened aluminum - ADZ1, 1915-T, 1925-T.

Other varieties are used less frequently, and only if the resulting product meets established standards.

Features of the production of aluminum structures

It is important to consider that with increasing temperature environment the performance properties of the metal deteriorate. This applies to both pure composition and alloys. The coefficient of linear expansion of aluminum is slightly higher than that of steel. For this reason, at the places of joints and interaction of elements with other finishing materials Corrosion may occur. To avoid this, structures in problem areas are painted or protected with special plastic gaskets.

For the production of aluminum structures with the required shape cross section The technology of molding rolled products under pressure is used. This method is cheaper, less labor-intensive and allows you to obtain an element of any configuration.

Main types of aluminum structures

• Translucent structures. This category includes various systems, which are used for arranging the facades of modern office buildings and shopping centers. There are “cold” and “warm” profiles. In the first version, the product has high thermal conductivity, so it is used only in unheated rooms. For warm design a special thermal insert is used, which increases the thermophysical characteristics of the aluminum profile. Installed in residential and heated buildings.
• Aluminum windows and doors. Entrance groups and window blocks made of light alloy are considered the most profitable alternative to wooden and steel structures. Such products have many advantages, from long service life to ease of daily maintenance. Aluminum doors, windows and other structures are hard to beat for functionality.
• Partitions. The launch of the production of aluminum partitions made it possible to solve the problem of shortage of free space in office centers. Using lightweight and very mobile elements, you can quickly zone your workspace. At the same time, aluminum structures with translucent filling visually expand the room, make it more illuminated and convenient for work.
• Stained glass and others decorative elements. At the stage finishing works Stained glass aluminum structures are often used inside and outside the building. This type of decor is a pattern or picture made of colored glass, which is placed in doors or windows, the translucent facade of the building. Aluminum stained glass structures are usually made to order according to an individual or author's design.

Modern production, equipped with advanced equipment and technologies, can produce aluminum structures of any shape and purpose. There is an increased demand for profile elements for arranging facades, window blocks and entrance group.

Advantages of aluminum structures

It is unlikely that aluminum structures would be so in demand if the products did not have numerous advantages.

• Technical simplicity. Aluminum structures are easy to install and operate; they do not require complex maintenance during use. For example, a balcony or loggia is not large sizes can be glazed in one day with the help of professional craftsmen and with all the necessary tools.
• Environmental Safety. Aluminum does not cause allergic reactions, does not emit substances harmful to humans and the environment into the atmosphere. The hygienic characteristics of the structures meet the requirements of sanitary standards.
• Long period of operation. Resistance to corrosion and point deformation of the aluminum profile is ensured by long service structures - 80 years. The material does not lose its performance properties in conditions high humidity, with temperature differences from −60 to +50 degrees Celsius.
• Lightness and versatility. Aluminum profiles and other types of structures do not load load-bearing elements, so even old facades and balconies can easily support frames made of this metal. Using lightweight profiles, you can assemble systems of any shape and size that fit perfectly into the environment.

2. Design variability. Production technology allows designers to create original elements various geometries and linear dimensions.
3. Durability. The service life of aluminum structures is unlimited. Only those elements that have significant mechanical damage must be replaced.
4. Easy to maintain. After installation of structures, periodic Maintenance is not produced.

But there is one very significant drawback – high price. You have to pay for quality and high performance.

What elements do translucent structures consist of?

Before considering the process of assembling structures, you need to study the special technical names individual elements. There are quite a lot of them, but you need to remember everything.

1. Profile. It is made by extrusion and has different thicknesses, lengths and widths. Used as a main or additional load-bearing element.
2. Solid profile. The simplest element, used only as decoration, does not have closed cavities. It can have different geometry and thickness, the front part is covered with powder paints.
3. Full profile. It is characterized by increased physical characteristics of load-bearing capacity. The section has closed cavities, due to which thermal conductivity is significantly reduced. The quality of the profiles depends on the number of cavities.
4. Combined profile. The most complex element of metal aluminum structures, individual parts are connected by thermal inserts that reduce heat loss.
5. Impost. Vertical or horizontal support for window sashes. Can be enhanced or ordinary.
6. Sash. The opening part of the window, the thickness depends on the number of glasses in the double-glazed window.
7. Profile camera. A closed space inside a profile that serves as a heat insulator.
8. bracket. Load-bearing element, fixed to the wall, supports the entire weight of the aluminum structure.
9. Rubber seals. Have different kind, height and length, are inserted into the grooves of the profiles. Used to seal sealing areas.
10. Thermal insert. A tubular elastic element is used to eliminate the appearance of cold bridges. Inserted into the seat on the profile.
11. Pressure bar. Decorative component, is fixed to the front part of the profiles with latches or self-tapping screws.
12. With its help, vertical and horizontal parts of structures are connected.
13. Spacer. Used to control the width of double-glazed windows.
14. Support pad. The glass unit rests on it.
15. Fastening heels. Metal plates with holes, with the help of which the structure is attached to surfaces with anchors.
16. Beading bead. Decorative plastic latch, used in windows and doors.

Some manufacturers complete their products with additional additional parts; the name and purpose are indicated in the instructions.

Technical requirements for aluminum structures

Values ​​for physical strength, operational parameters and maximum deviations linear dimensions are prescribed by the Eurasian Council for Standardization, Metrology and Certification (EASC). Allowed for window blocks various ways opening the doors.

In heated rooms, it is mandatory to use heat-saving profiles.

In order to increase the stability of the structure, the area of ​​the sashes is ≤ 2.5 m2, and the weight together with the glass unit is ≤ 100 kg. The maximum dimensions of the sashes are 210 cm in height and 120 cm in width. Profile door leaves cannot be higher than 210 mm and wider than 90 cm. If the use of large-sized structures is required, then for them it is necessary to carry out separate calculations for each loaded node, including hinges and other additional elements. Resistance to constant static loads of the sash plane ≥ 1200 N, load bearing capacity in corners ≥ 400 N.

All structures must have special openings for draining rainwater and a system for draining the internal cavities of double-glazed windows. At the same time, elements of natural ventilation and water drainage should not affect negative influence on heat saving indicators. The design must provide for emergency emergency opening with outside in case of emergency.

Aluminum alloys used for the manufacture of profiles, according to chemical composition and physical characteristics must comply with the provisions current GOST 22233.

GOST 22233-2001. Profiles pressed from aluminum alloys for translucent enclosing structures. Technical conditions. File for download

GOST 31014-2002. Polyamide glass-filled profiles. Technical conditions. File for download

Thermal insulation inserts are made of polyamide in accordance with GOST 31014; to reduce thermal conductivity, the air chambers of the profiles can be filled with foam plastics various brands, these are the highest quality and most expensive products. The connection of thermal insulators and seals is reliable and guarantees tightness for at least ten years of operation.

The durability of the profiles for the most loaded unit must ensure more than 40 years of use, and all components must meet the same criterion. All elements in direct contact with aluminum have an anodic oxide coating. In terms of static load, structures must hold at least 500 N, and in terms of torque ≥ 25 N/m.

Structural assembly technology

Aluminum translucent profile structures are currently the most expensive elements. We strongly do not recommend designing, assembling and installing them yourself if you do not have experience in calculating structural elements. Mistakes lead to destruction of products, which is not only a waste of time and money, but also a risk of injury.

The assembly of structures must be done in strict accordance with project documentation, which indicates not only the dimensions, but also specifications elements. If you can independently calculate the loads in each of them, taking into account the features of geometry, dimensions, installation location, wind and snow loads and other factors exerting efforts, then do the documentation without the help of professionals.

Important. Do not rush to cut profiles to these sizes; check the accuracy of the measurements several times. Remember that you will never be able to lengthen a piece that is too short; you will have to throw it away. And this has a very negative impact on the final cost of products.

How to assemble a facade system?

Step 1. By specified sizes Attach crackers to the façade profile.

Pre-prepare a template; you need to use it to fix all the elements on one side. For the template, use a grinder to saw off a piece of profile up to one centimeter long. Fastening is carried out with strong metal screws; the size of the screws must be calculated or indicated in the documentation for the assembly of the structure.

Step 2. At the place where the crackers are attached, remove the protective plastic film. Place the template on the profile at the calculated distance from the end, insert a cracker into it.

Important. If during installation facade system the finished floor is not ready yet, then lift the cracker to its mark ( zero level). The bottom of the vertical post will be filled with concrete, the finishing floor will be placed on it, the cracker should be on the same horizontal line with finishing coat. The same must be considered with the ceiling. If it is not ready yet, then fix the cracker below. How much depends on the specific ceiling design.

Insert the cracker into the template and drill four holes. Practitioners recommend using self-tapping screws with a hemispherical head; they can withstand increased forces. Press washers are inferior to them in these indicators. Tighten the screws without unnecessary zeal, do not turn the thread. If such a problem occurs, screw the self-tapping screw a little into the same place. larger diameter. If the glass unit is double or triple, then it is more reliable to fasten the crackers with bolts and nuts. Make sure that the cracker is pressed tightly, check that the fixation is secure.

Step 3. After completing the fastening of the crackers on the opposite profiles, be sure to check their position. Place the two elements opposite each other, the edges of the crackers should be located along the same line. This is extremely important, otherwise the corners will not be 90°, and it will be impossible to insert double-glazed windows.

Step 4. Attach fastening heels to special inserts; often the same crackers are used as inserts, only long ones.

Responsible manufacturers supply them complete. If not, you will have to do it yourself, prepare the plates and cut threads in the end cavities of the crackers. The length of the heel crackers is approximately 6–8 centimeters. Attach the metal plate (heel) with anchors to a long cracker; later it is inserted into the hollow profile.

The plate is longer than the profile and has two additional holes with which the stand is attached to the floor and ceiling. Two heels are attached at the top, and two at the bottom of the structure.

Step 5. Proceed with installing the crossbars. The crossbars are inserted into crackers, on the inner side surfaces of which there are special mounting sockets for self-tapping screws. To keep them in place, attach them with self-tapping screws. To ensure that the holes on the crossbars coincide with the mounting sockets, take measurements with a caliper. Find out the height of the seats and drill Ø5 mm holes in the crossbars at the same distance.

Practical advice. When drilling holes in aluminum profiles, make sure that the chips do not scratch the paint. Clean the drill from accumulated chips in a timely manner. Aluminum alloys have an unpleasant property - they constantly clog the grooves of the drill, it works poorly and overheats.

Step 6. Insert double-glazed window seals into the grooves of the profiles. They have different heights depending on the thickness of the glass units.

Rubber the crossbars with a reserve of sealants of approximately five millimeters. This is necessary so that during thermal expansion the sealant constantly fits tightly to the surfaces. Then during final assembly the protruding tip is compressed and forcefully fits into place in the groove.

Step 7 After preparing all the elements, assemble the structure into a single whole. Insert the crossbars into the vertical posts one by one; they should fit into the screwed crackers. Fasten the elements with self-tapping screws drilled holes. We recommend using screws with countersunk head. They hold securely, and in case of minor errors they will not interfere with inserting the double-glazed window.

Step 8 To ensure that the outside aluminum does not touch the inside and heat is not lost, install a thermal bridge (thermal insert). It is installed in special mounting grooves of profiles, the grooves are located in the middle of the elements. Carefully place the thermal bridge, making sure that it fits in place along its entire length.

Types of facade systems

Before starting work on glazing facades, you need to choose the best option for each case. Today there are several types, each with its own characteristics.

Warm and cold. If interior heated, then to save costs on maintaining a favorable temperature you need to choose warm option facade glazing made of aluminum profiles. Warm glazing has at least double-glazed windows; special profiles with several air chambers inside are used to create the structure. The cost is quite expensive.

A cold one will cost much less, the weight of the structure is insignificant, and cheap single-chamber profiles can be used for installation. In addition to a small number of chambers, such profiles have thin walls - a smaller amount of expensive aluminum alloy is used for production. As a result, the selling price is much lower.

Frameless and framed designs. For frameless ones, profiles are not needed; there is a different installation technology. And to create frames, aluminum profiles and additional elements are used. Frame frames can have several types:

• post-transom;
• modular;
• structural or semi-structural.

Post-transom consist of vertical load-bearing posts and horizontal crossbars. The parameters of metal profiles are selected depending on the size of the structure and the characteristics of the double-glazed windows. We described above how such structures are assembled.

Modular. Manufactured according to consumer sketches at specialized enterprises and delivered to finished form. The individual modules are assembled on site. Due to this technology, installation time is reduced and the risks of incorrect assembly are eliminated. But unfortunately, the cost of the structure increases significantly.

Structural. All fasteners are located inside the structure and with outside invisible. They have improved design characteristics, but there are restrictions on the height of buildings. The structures do not have a sufficient safety margin, the weight of the structure is limited.

Semi-structural. They are superior in strength to structural ones and have additional reinforcing elements.

Installing the façade system in place

Important. Installation of a facade system made of aluminum profiles is carried out without double-glazed windows. If there are window sashes, they are dismantled.

Step 1. Measure the dimensions of the opening in the wall, check whether they correspond to the parameters of the façade system. If necessary, increase or decrease openings, optimal distance between the walls and structural elements 1–2 cm.

Step 2. Lift carefully assembled structure and install it in place. When lifting, apply effort evenly; the work must be performed by at least two people. Align the structure strictly vertically and secure its position with wedges.

Step 3. Drill holes around the perimeter of the profiles for anchors, insert them into place and secure. Secure the heels at the top and bottom of the structure.

Step 4. Polyurethane foam fill the gaps between the aluminum structure and the opening in the wall. Before foaming, thoroughly moisten the surfaces. Moisture not only significantly increases the adhesion of materials, but also accelerates the hardening time of the foam.

Step 5. After hardening, cut off the protruding foam and level the surfaces with plaster.

Step 6. Carefully insert the double-glazed windows and put the glazing beads in place.

At this point, the installation of the structure is complete, you can begin finishing premises. If the floors are not finished, make every effort to ensure that the bottom transom has a stop along its entire length. This greatly strengthens the design and increases operational safety. If, during the installation of double-glazed windows, oscillations are detected, be sure to find the cause and eliminate it. It is strictly prohibited to install double-glazed windows in fragile structures.
